calling a Timer from inside an ActionListener in Java

I have created a (2nd) Timer in Java but rather than adding the arguements (int, action) when creating the Timer, I am trying to initialize the Timer inside an actionlistener.

I have created a (2nd) Timer in Java but rather than adding the arguements (int, action) when creating the Timer, I am trying to initialize the Timer inside an actionlistener. The reason is that the int [in the timers arguement] is created within the actionlistener.

When i do this though, the Timer cant be found.

                //HERE IS MY PROBLEM

                timerDuration( durationMilliSec, timerDurationActionEvent ).start();

    }
    public void BluetoothScan( Timer myTimer ) {
        BluetoothDeviceDiscovery scan = new BluetoothDeviceDiscovery();
        try {
            myTimer.stop();
            scan.main();
        } catch( IOException e ) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch( InterruptedException e ) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        myTimer.start();
    };
    public void StopTimers( Timer timerDuration ) {
        timerDuration.stop();
        //myTimer.stop();
    }
}

The problem lies at the bottom of the btnScanAction ActionListener when creating the Timer timerDuration(durationMilliSec, timerDurationActionEvent).start();

its a problem with not being able to see the created Timer from within the ActionListener. Does anyone know of a possible way round this, still keeping the timerDuration(durationMilliSec, timerDurationActionEvent).start(); In the ActionListener??

Thanks a lot guys


timerDuration(durationMilliSec, timerDurationActionEvent).start();

Doesn't make any sence here. Java expects method call here. If you want to start new Timer() here, then write

Timer timer = new TimerTask() {
 // code here
}.start();
